@ndw #turses if you want a cli-based client. #turpial is a good GUI client (gtk based). Choqok - haven't used - is a KDE client.—@CanOfBees
@ndw Why do you need a client other than #Emacs? Try `twittering-mode' https://t.co/jB5Me8l8t8—@MenteaXML
@ndw ... the website :\ and sometimes perl scripts.—@gcarothers
@gcarothers @ndw I use the web site and "Pin tab" in the browser (also pin Evernote, OWA (for calendar),
and a few others.—@cramerdw

The Twitter API has been sending me 403s for about a week. Looks like my auth token
